Combined shower with gravity switch mechanism

Abstract

A combined shower with a gravity switch mechanism includes a wall-fixed shower, a handheld shower and a water diversion component, the water diversion component includes a water inlet, two water outlets respectively connected to the wall-fixed shower and handheld shower, and a switching component which is used to switch the waterway communication between the water inlet and two water outlets. The shower also includes a gravity switch mechanism and an attachment portion. The attachment portion interacts with the switching component to drive the activation of the switching component to trigger the switch to make the handheld shower activate or remain static relative to the position of the wall-fixed shower.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to sanitary wares, especially to a combined shower with gravity switch mechanism.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]There are many showers existing in the market including multi-functional combined shower such as combining handheld shower with fixed show like sunflower shower, spray head on the wall or swing shower, the function of water diversion is accomplished by handling switches of each shower mechanically, normally it should be designed with two switches respectively to control water inlet and select water outlet from one of the showers, therefore the user should shift the switches manually before the action of taking handheld shower from the rack, so that it will make the using process complex cause occupying two hands or two steps; meanwhile, there are some defects existing in prior art of combined showers: firstly, it needs two parts to accomplish the switching function then result in more complicated design of manufac...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The gravity switch mechanism allows for easy and stable operation by using the handheld shower's gravity to control water diversion, reducing complexity and space requirements while ensuring consistent water outlet selection without manual switch operation.

Problems solved by technology

There are many showers existing in the market including multi-functional combined shower such as combining handheld shower with fixed show like sunflower shower, spray head on the wall or swing shower, the function of water diversion is accomplished by handling switches of each shower mechanically, normally it should be designed with two switches respectively to control water inlet and select water outlet from one of the showers, therefore the user should shift the switches manually before the action of taking handheld shower from the rack, so that it will make the using process complex cause occupying two hands or two steps; meanwhile, there are some defects existing in prior art of combined showers: firstly, it needs two parts to accomplish the switching function then result in more complicated design of manufacturing structure and high manufactory cost; secondly, it takes big space to install necessary components on the wall of bathroom like switches for water inlet and outlet controlling as well as racks for hanging handheld shower or sunflower shower; thirdly, it's inclined to be confused in the using process of identifying the waterway switched by which shower before several times of trial and error; therefore, as can be seen from above, presently it is difficult to satisfy the needs for effective manufacturing, convenient usage and space saving of the prior art of combined shower.
